"Dr. Varipapa is a pro and his attention to every detail gave me the 'Wow!' factor. Even my temporaries were awesome."

Michael came to our practice from his old Dentist because his teeth were breaking down. "I knew I needed to have my front teeth done and had heard about Dr. Varipapa's reputation in cosmetic dentistry," said Michael. Careful examination revealed a significant wear issue related also to gastric reflux.

Michael's Solution:

A comprehensive treatment plan was developed with Michael:

Restore Michael's mouth to optimal health and esthetics.

Do so in a fashion that accommodated his busy schedule.

Do so in a fashion that tested Michael's bite with temporaries that looked exceptionally good through to process.

"I HAD BROKEN A FRONT TOOTH AND THE COLOR WAS OFF. I ALWAYS HAD SMALLER TEETH AND THERE WAS NO FLOW FROM FRONT TO BACK. Doctor Varipapa worked closely with me to design my smile and a I knew for the start what was coming, my temporaries were awesome and my new smile is unbelievable. Dr Varipapa ROCKS!!!!"

"This is a special office where people really care! I was involved in the whole process of improving my smile."

Stephanie had an old bridge that just did not look good. She loved to smile and wanted to really improve her smile.

Stephanie's Solution:

We replaced her front bridge and then put veneers on her back upper teeth to expand her smile. Now she smiles bigger than ever and is confident about her new look!

"I feel like I just got a new car and I'm loving it!"

Adam had a premature wear of his front teeth and no room to lengthen his teeth.

Adam and Dr. Varipapa worked his case out in the lab and he discovered how to create room orthodontically (with braces). Adam knew we had to do it the right way after he and the doctor made it work in the lab. After eight months of orthodontics, we placed 10 upper veneers and eight lower ones to complete his smile makeover. Adam is all smiles now!

"It took me 20 years to find a Dentist who knew how to handle the problems I was having."

Ken's teeth were worn beyond their years. They hardly showed in photos. His bite was closed more too. Longer more natural teeth improved his bite, his smile and his teeth.

"I wanted to have a movie star smile and now I do!"

Tony had worn and shortened front teeth. They were slightly crooked too. He wanted a "Tom Cruise smile."

We studied his bite and were able to treat him conservatively with 10 porcelain veneers on top and six on the bottom.

Tony loves his youthful athletic smile; it is all tweaked to perfection!

Initial diagnosis revealed that there were problems caused by premature wear of the teeth that required opening the bite and tooth lengthening so that the teeth could be seen when Claudia spoke and smiled.

"I couldn't be more thrilled with my smile and the way my teeth look and feel. People tell me I look ten years younger, having my teeth done made me feel so good; I love Dr Varipapa's office and his staff, they are wonderful. I was amazed how they cared for me before and after my treatment they are like family. I had been told my dentistry would cost over $80,000.00 dollars before and while it was not inexpensive it was not as exorbitant as I had been told. Another office was pushing me to have treatment done I did not even know what was going on. I felt pressured by the business person, my experience was so different at Dr Varipapa's, his Administrative Assistant, Claire was such a good listener she helped me through he whole process from the dentistry to the financial responsibilities. My experience was terrific."

Donna had four veneers that were short and square and she "never liked them." Through our comprehensive exam and careful review of the photographs we took with her, we discovered that one back old crown was poorly done and others were old and had outlived their usefulness.

"This has been the greatest place.I love my smile and everyone here."

Debra had an old bridge that was not very esthetic; metal was showing in the front and back. The bridge looked crooked and was leaning to one side. Debra's high profile job keeps her in the public eye. The old bridge had caused her teeth to shift and they needed to be re-aligned with orthodontics.

We completed her uppers with an all porcelain bridge and porcelain veneers. Debra is thrilled about her new smile and so are we! She is such a nice person we were honored to care for her smile makeover.

"I shopped around until I found the right office. Dr. Varipapa and his team are thorough, meticulous, and caring. I made the right choice."

Lynn had shopped around for just the right Dentist to restore her smile. She chose Alexandria Art of Dentistry because "Dr. Varipapa was more thorough than any other office and took the time to listen to me. The other seemed in a hurry to get started." She had some very old dentistry that needed replacement and wanted to be able to smile for her pictures. That's what she got too!

"I love my new smile and the way it was done, I felt very cared for and worked closely with the doctor to make choices about my health and appearance. I had had soft teeth as a child and hated going to the dentist, my smile was so important to me and no one was listening. Dr Varipapa was patient and understanding, he made me comfortable and relaxed and together we discussed and planned every phase of my dental work. I love my smile, it shows my confidence and I laugh and smile without thinking about it! It was one of the best decisions I have ever made."
